[Shotimes] Which MAF is best?

[Timothy Tyner]

Rod bearing failures caused by LPM's?  That is a first for my ears.
Elaborate please.  As far as gettings serious HP out of an SHO, the LPM is
the way to go.  I know of a certain boosted car that runs 13.1's at 113 with
a little LPM.

What constitutes "better drivability" though? Personally, I don't think
that the SHO suffers from any drivability issues that require the aid of
an LPM.

My car was running way rich with the LPM. Others have also theorized
that the rod bearing failures may be attributed to poor A/F tuning via
LPM. It's too iffy for such negligible gains/losses; I was not satisfied
with my LPM and I'm glad that I got rid of it.

I thought that there are changes to the fuel mixture as well at part
throttle. Ted has always claimed better "drivability," not just HP gains

because of remapping fuel curves (I thought, but could be wrong.)
